just my two cents .........
.
If I was going to tow a big load - 3500+ lbs or so - OFTEN, I would invest in a 3/4 ton pickup ......... preferably with a diesel ....... V10 ........... or (if GM) maybe the new 8.1 ...... 8100 ....... or whatever.
.
Tone's hitch looks like the way to go if you are going to tow with the VX. The VX has a full frame, 200+ hp, and low gearing, so it should tow relatively well. One caveat: The short wheelbase may be an issue.
Gearing (again): the VX gearing is ideal for towing. Few vehicles sold today are equipped with gearing as low as the VX.

A trans cooler may be a good idea - I don't know. I installed one on a car twenty years ago - and have not thought about a trans cooler since then.
